1. A kit, comprising:
- a formulation comprising at least one oxidizing agent precursor; and
an electrically powered patch to promote electrical conversion of the at least one oxidizing agent precursor into an active oxidizing agent and delivery of the active oxidizing agent onto and/or into a body area,wherein the patch is configured to provide an electrical potential sufficient to generate the active oxidizing agent determined according to the standard potential of the oxidizing agent and/or oxidizing agent precursor.

Abstract
A kit, device and method for delivering an oxidizing agent onto and/or into the body are disclosed. Moreover, a dermal patch device, which delivers an oxidizing agent using iontophoresis and or electroosmosis onto and/or into the body is disclosed. Furthermore, use of a dermal patch device for treatment of a body area with an oxidizing agent is disclosed. The device may be a thin and flexible dermal patch. A method of using such a device/kit for treatment of a disorder of a body area with an oxidizing agent is also disclosed.
